Sir Henry Bard's regiment of Foote

The regiment's first major conflict under its new commanding officer was at Cheriton Wood.

It was a disaster; records suggest that a week later the regiment numbered 176 men.

The regiment later fought at the battles of Cropredy Bridge, Lostwithiel and Second Newbury, before being reinforced by the Queen's Lifeguard and forming the garrison of Campden House.

[1] The present day regiment has two companies: Captain Errington's Companye, based mainly in Essex but also having members as far a field as Ipswich and Devon and The Major's Companye, based mainly around Basingstoke.

The regiment consists of pike, musket, drums, ensigns, artillery and camp followers.
